M
odern memory cards (such as a 16GB SD card) can
store a huge number of photos, especially if you
tend to shoot in JPEG format. This means that
hundreds of your precious pictures may only exist
on a small piece of plastic that’s very easy to misplace. To
protect your irreplaceable pictures you should import them
from the memory card into the safety of the Photoshop
Elements Organizer as soon as you return from a shoot. In
the following walkthrough we’ll show you how to set up the
Organizer’s Photo Downloader to copy your shots into
folders on your PC and display them in the Organizer.
You can launch the Photo Downloader from the File menu,
and it can also import pictures from files and folders alreadyon your hard disk, or even straight from your iPhone or iPad.
But it does more than that because it can carry out lots of
useful photo housekeeping tasks at the same time. your
imported shots in a variety of ways. It can batch rename files
so that they aren’t simply a list of meaningless numbers and
we’ll also talk you though key options in the Advanced dialog
so that you can automatically organise your photos as you
import them. For example, you can ask Elements to stack
similar pictures in a pile in the Organizer and add ‘metadata’
including copyright information.
The Organizer interface in Elements 14 has a new, updated
appearance (above) but the import settings in our step by
step guide (opposite) have stayed the same.Import photos from
